Stephen is desperate to find out what happened to his mother. She disappeared and his father won't tell him the truth. Then Stephen finds his way into a strange world where he doesn't recognize anyone, but everyone seems to know him. Perhaps he can find what he wants to know in this parallel existence. But the truth Stephen discovers is shocking. His mother killed the stepfather that abused her as a child, and is now in prison. Eventually Stephen finds it is possible to like his mother, if not to love her.
